Understanding the MGA Recognition Notice

The Malta Gaming Authority (MGA) Recognition Notice is a formal certificate that allows online gaming operators in possession of a valid gaming license issued by an EU/EEA Member State (or a state with equivalent safeguards) to offer their services to or from Malta. This notice eliminates the need for operators to obtain a separate gaming license directly from the Maltese authorities, streamlining the process of expanding their services into Malta. 

The MGA Recognition Notice is significant because it promotes regulatory efficiency and facilitates cross-border gaming operations within the EU/EEA. It acknowledges the regulatory oversight of other reputable jurisdictions, reducing redundant licensing procedures and providing a cost-effective way for gaming operators to access the Maltese market. 

Requirements and Application Process

Obtaining an MGA Recognition Notice involves a detailed application process with specific requirements. Essential documentation and information include:

• A non-refundable application fee of €5,000. 
• A certified true copy of the original Gaming License, with a certified English translation if necessary. 
• A signed Entity Declaration Form. 
• A declaration confirming the current list of directors with their contact details. 
• A comprehensive list of URLs/Domains (if applicable, as approved under the foreign license). 
• A formal Letter of Good Standing from the license-issuing Authority. 
• A certified legal opinion covering company details, compliance checks, comparability assessment of gaming services, AML/CFT compliance, and a description of gaming services. 
• An Operation Declaration confirming that all gaming services and/or critical gaming supplies offered by the licensee are covered by the stated foreign licence.

The application process is conducted through the MGA’s Licensee Portal, where all required documents must be submitted electronically, unless otherwise specified. 

Reporting and regulatory obligations

Each entity in possession of a Recognition Notice issued by the Maltese Regulator has the obligation to report on a monthly basis the Gaming Revenue generated exclusively by Maltese Player.

A 5% gaming tax will be due, on a monthly basis, calculated based on the declared revenue,

Annual Maintenance and Changes

Once obtained, the MGA Recognition Notice remains valid for one year and requires annual maintenance to ensure continued compliance. This involves submitting a “Recognition Notice Annual Maintenance” application through the Licensee Portal, including:

• Proof of payment of the annual maintenance fee of €5,000. 
• A signed declaration confirming the current list of directors with their contact details. 
• An updated domain list, if applicable. 

It is crucial to keep the MGA informed of any changes in operations or licensing status by submitting a “Changes to Recognition Notice Certificate” application. Changes that need to be reported include:

• Addition of new foreign licenses. 
• Changes to the foreign license. 
• Changes to company details. 
• Changes to directors. 
• Changes to domains. 

Maintaining Continuous Compliance

Continuous compliance with the MGA’s regulations is essential to avoid revocation of the Recognition Notice. This includes timely submission of annual maintenance applications, accurate and prompt reporting of changes, and adherence to all applicable laws and regulations. 

Long-Term Benefits

Obtaining an MGA Recognition Notice offers several long-term benefits for online gaming operators:

• Accelerated market entry. 
• Cost-effectiveness. 
• Enhanced credibility. 
• Access to a thriving gaming ecosystem. 
• Cross-border expansion opportunities.

Delving into the MGA Recognition Notice

To lay a solid foundation, let’s define the MGA Recognition Notice. In essence, it is a formal certificate issued by the Malta Gaming Authority (MGA) to entities that already hold a valid gaming license from another Member State within the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA), or from a state that the MGA deems to offer safeguards that are largely equivalent to those stipulated by Maltese law. This recognition notice empowers these operators to offer their gaming services to players located in or from Malta, without the necessity of obtaining a separate gaming license directly from the Maltese authorities. Effectively, the MGA Recognition Notice “shall have the same effect as an authorisation issued by the Authority for the purpose of providing a gaming service or gaming supply in or from Malta.” 

This recognition mechanism plays a pivotal role in streamlining the process for established operators to extend their service offerings into Malta, thereby significantly reducing the regulatory burden and the time typically associated with the acquisition of an entirely new license.

The Significance of the MGA Recognition Notice

The MGA Recognition Notice holds immense significance as it fosters regulatory efficiency and facilitates cross-border gaming operations within the EU/EEA. It serves as an acknowledgment of the regulatory oversight exercised by other reputable jurisdictions, thereby obviating the need for redundant licensing procedures. For gaming operators, this translates into a more expeditious and cost-effective means of accessing the Maltese market, a jurisdiction that stands as a prominent hub within the online gaming industry.

Malta has strategically positioned itself as a leading jurisdiction for online gaming, characterized by its robust regulatory framework, a business-friendly environment, and a supportive ecosystem. The MGA Recognition Notice is instrumental in maintaining this esteemed status by attracting established and compliant operators from diverse jurisdictions, thereby enriching the local gaming landscape.

Detailed Requirements for Obtaining an MGA Recognition Notice

The process of obtaining an MGA Recognition Notice involves a meticulous application process, underpinned by a set of specific and stringent requirements. To assist you in preparing adequately, here is a comprehensive breakdown of the essential documentation and information you will need to compile:

• Letter of Good Standing: A formal Letter of good standing from the licence-issuing Authority is a mandatory requirement. 
• Certified Legal Opinion: This is a cornerstone of the application process. A certified legal opinion, provided by a warranted professional, must be submitted, covering several critical areas:
  • Company Details: This encompasses your company registration number, the country under whose laws the company was incorporated, the registered address, Licence number, and the issuance date and expiry date of your license.

  • Comparability Assessment: A comprehensive assessment that the gaming services and/or critical gaming supplies, which may be offered by virtue of the license and in terms of the relevant jurisdiction’s framework, are comparable to the respective licensable services established under Maltese Law and in accordance with Article 22 of Gaming Authorisations Regulations. 
  • Description of Gaming Services: A detailed description of the gaming services and/or critical gaming supplies that may be offered by virtue of the license, including a non-generic description of the products, which should be comparable to the descriptions of the relevant game types and verticals under Maltese law.

It is imperative to acknowledge that, notwithstanding the submitted legal opinion, the Authority retains the right to independently confirm, or otherwise, the comparability of the services being offered by virtue of the foreign license, as well as the equivalence of the safeguards to those offered by Maltese Law.

The MGA Recognition Notice Application Process: A Step-by-Step Guide

The application process for securing an MGA Recognition Notice is conducted through the MGA’s Licensee Portal, an online platform designed to facilitate interactions between licensees and the Authority. Prospective applicants must access the Recognition Notice Application within the portal and submit all the requisite documents electronically, unless otherwise specified. It is crucial to note that certain documents, such as the Entity Declaration Form, must be submitted in hard copy format.

Annual Maintenance: Ensuring the Validity of Your MGA Recognition Notice

Once you have successfully obtained your MGA Recognition Notice, it is essential to understand that it is not a perpetual authorization. The certificate remains valid for a period of one (1) year and necessitates annual maintenance reviews to ensure continued compliance with the MGA’s regulations. 

To maintain the validity of your Recognition Notice, you are required to submit a new “Recognition Notice Annual Maintenance” application through the Online Services dropdown menu in the Licensee Portal. 

This application must include the following information and documentation:

• Proof of Payment: You must provide proof of payment with respect to the annual maintenance fee of five thousand Euro (€5,000) within the ‘Other Documents’ Enclosures section as a soft copy. This proof of payment must explicitly include the Payment Reference Number, which will be provided in the confirmation stage of the application process. 
• Director Declaration: A declaration, signed by one (1) of your Company’s director/s, confirming the current list of directors, including their full name and surname, email, and phone number, must be submitted as a soft copy within the ‘List of Directors and the relevant Contact Details’ Enclosures section. 
• Updated Domain List (if applicable): If your operations fall under the B2C category, you must provide the latest list of domains through which the Gaming Service is offered to players within the ‘Other Documents’ section as a soft copy. 

Reporting Obligations and Gaming Tax

In addition to the annual maintenance requirements, entities in possession of an MGA Recognition Notice are subject to specific reporting and regulatory obligations.

• A key obligation is the monthly reporting of Gaming Revenue generated exclusively by Maltese players.
• Furthermore, a 5% gaming tax is due on a monthly basis, calculated based on the declared revenue.
• It is crucial for Recognition Notice holders to establish robust systems for accurately tracking and reporting revenue generated from Maltese players to ensure compliance with these financial obligations.
• The confirmation that no changes have been made to the original license issued by the foreign jurisdiction will be confirmed through the renewal application submission. The application will be subject to the payment of the Annual Certificate fee and will require the inclusion of the Payment Reference Number, acceptance of the application’s Terms and Conditions, and submission. Should any changes be effected, the relevant application form would need to be submitted as per the details provided in the subsequent sections.

During the submission of the annual maintenance application, all information will be set to read-only mode. Therefore, it is imperative that Recognition Notice holders meticulously ensure that the information held on record is accurate and representative of the Recognition Notice Certificate holder’s operations. If any discrepancies are observed between the actual information and the information being displayed within the application, it is crucial to refer to the following sections for guidance on how to rectify these issues. 

Contact Advisory Services Ltd can provide invaluable assistance in managing your annual maintenance obligations, ensuring timely submission of all required documentation and maintaining continuous compliance with the MGA’s regulations. Please do not hesitate to contact us at info@contact.com.mt for comprehensive support.

Navigating Changes to Your MGA Recognition Notice

It is essential to keep the MGA promptly informed of any changes that may occur in your operations or licensing status. The MGA has established specific procedures for reporting these changes, which involve the submission of a “Changes to Recognition Notice Certificate” application through the Licensee Portal.

Here is a detailed breakdown of the various types of changes that may necessitate reporting and the specific requirements associated with each:

2. Changes to the Foreign License

In the event of any changes to the Licence/s issued by a foreign jurisdiction, including but not limited to the Licence/s status, renewal certificates, gaming verticals/types offered, and the legal opinion provided to the MGA, Recognition Notice holders are obligated to submit a “Changes to Recognition Notice Certificate” application through the Licensee Portal. The application should include:

• The updated foreign Licence information by selecting the downward arrow at the end of the Licence record titled ‘Edit Recognition Notice Licence’. 
• A certified true copy of the original Gaming Licence, and a certified translation in English (where applicable).

  • Company details including company registration number, the country under which laws the company was incorporated, registered address, Licence number, issuance date and expiry date. 
  • Confirmation that the issuing foreign competent authority conducts compliance checks and whether such compliance checks are applicable to the entirety of the operation. 
  • Should different compliance checks be applicable to different operations (e.g., game vertical/game type), confirmation of the applicability of the compliance checks to the respective operations should be provided. 
  • An assessment that the gaming services and/or critical gaming supplies which may be offered by virtue of the licence and in terms of the relevant jurisdiction’s framework, are comparable to the respective licensable services established under Maltese Law and in accordance with Article 22 of Gaming Authorisations Regulations.

  • *Notwithstanding such assessment, the Authority reserves the right to confirm, or otherwise, the comparability of the services being offered by virtue of the foreign licence, as well as the equivalence of the safeguards to those offered by Maltese Law. 

3. Changes to Company Details

If there are any changes to your company details, you are required to submit a “Changes to Recognition Notice Certificate” application through the Licensee Portal. The application should include:

• Updated Company details by selecting ‘Edit Entity Declaration Form’, whereby the Recognition Notice holder will be able to amend the relevant fields within the Entity Declaration Form. 
• A signed Entity Declaration form available from the Enclosures section of the Application and submitted to the Authority as a hard copy. 

4. Changes to Directors

Any changes to the directors of your company also necessitate the submission of a “Changes to Recognition Notice Certificate” application via the Licensee Portal. The application shall include a soft-copy declaration signed by one of the Directors, including the list of Directors and the relevant Contact Details (specifying full name, contact number & e-mail address). 

5. Changes to Domains

The Recognition Notice holder will be asked to look up the relevant Recognition Notice Certificate to proceed with the application and select ‘Edit Recognition Notice Licence’ pertaining to the relevant foreign Licence.

The Long-Term Benefits of Obtaining an MGA Recognition Notice

While the application process and ongoing compliance requirements may seem demanding, obtaining an MGA Recognition Notice offers numerous long-term benefits for online gaming operators seeking to establish a presence in Malta.

• Accelerated Market Entry: The Recognition Notice significantly expedites the process of entering the Maltese gaming market, allowing operators to commence operations much faster than would be possible with a traditional licensing application. This accelerated market entry provides a substantial competitive advantage, enabling operators to capitalize on market opportunities and generate revenue more quickly.
• Cost-Effectiveness: Compared to the process of obtaining a new gaming license, applying for an MGA Recognition Notice can be a more cost-effective option for eligible operators. While there are still associated fees, the overall expenses may be lower due to the reduced complexity and administrative burden.
• Enhanced Credibility: Holding an MGA Recognition Notice enhances the credibility and reputation of gaming operators. The MGA is a highly respected regulatory authority, and its recognition of an operator’s existing license from another reputable jurisdiction serves as a testament to the operator’s commitment to compliance and responsible gaming practices.
• Access to a Thriving Gaming Ecosystem: Malta boasts a thriving and well-established gaming ecosystem, characterized by a supportive regulatory environment, a skilled workforce, and a robust infrastructure. Obtaining an MGA Recognition Notice provides operators with access to this vibrant ecosystem, fostering growth and facilitating business development.

By establishing a presence in Malta, operators can leverage the country’s strategic location and regulatory framework to access other European markets more effectively.
